In the town I will be living, Habitat for Humanity has a deconstruction section at their Restore thrift store. This is stuff that was saved from places that were being demolished. I found some plastic siding that looks like cedar siding. It was $1 a 3' x 18" section, so, I bought enough to skirt my place for $40, plus $36 for J channel to finish it. I did a small section just to see how it looked, not too bad, I think!
What do ya think?

I'd really recommend having a small gravel barrier with landscape cloth underneath to help keep vegetation growth away from the skirting or if so inclined, use a good spray to keep it away.. A weedeater will eat up the skirting. A lawn mower can also throw rocks hard enough to punch holes in it as well. Don't aim the discharge at the home when you are close to it.
